// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// Note: Chilkat's PKCS11 implementation runs on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and other supported operating systems.

$pkcs11 = new COM("Chilkat.Pkcs11");

// Use the PKCS11 driver (.dll, .so, .dylib) for your particular HSM.
// For example:
$pkcs11->SharedLibPath = 'C:/Program Files (x86)/Gemalto/IDGo 800 PKCS#11/IDPrimePKCS1164.dll';

// Use your HSM's PIN to login.
// If you wish to establish a session without logging in, then set the pin equal to the empty string.
$pin = '0000';

// Normal user = 1
$userType = 1;

// Establish a logged-on user session with the HSM.
// The call to QuickSession takes the place of calling Initialize, OpenSession, and Login.
